[thejeans]

its not phens again is it?? haha





im sorry i couldnt resist that one... sorry Phen!!!

 

[Josue6WGN]

Haha. I thought it was at least a MSM when my buddy came up to me and said there was a turbo Miata out there.

Teaser....

 

[princess peach]

wtf...

 

[Josue6WGN]

And yes, it's zip tied on!

 

[Lewis7789]

Isn't that the stock IC from an MSM?

Anyone have a tube bender I can use/borrow for a 1-3/8" aluminum tubing about a foot long? Or know of a decent local shop that can bend it for me? (Not Big3 Racing...)

Look for a plumber or maybe see if they can do it at Home Depot

yes, that's a stock MSM IC

 

[Josue6WGN]

BOOM! hahahaha

That bar in the back feels like it's zip tied on too...all loose, not very safe!

Looks like a junkyard motor, with all the yellow writing on it?

 

[Lewis7789]

Hey, nothing wrong with JY motors. Both my cars rock them (well, someday for the P5, lulz). haha. But yeah, looks a little hooptie... And needs an alignment.

Wasn't knocking them, just making an observation! Maybe it's just a project that this guy pieced together.

 

[aMaff]

yes, that's a stock MSM IC

...mounted very, very poorly. Wow.

 

[WillD]

So what's the story with that Miata... very...um...interesting?

 

[Josue6WGN]

Not sure, I haven't heard anything about it yet. Looks like maybe paint the front bumper? Hopefully they give it to someone else though, I don't want to touch this thing...lol

 

[XCLR8TN]

He did a small wire tuck, that AFM and filter would never fit there in a stock NA bay. Wow.

 

[XCLR8TN]

I can't tell from my phone, what color is that radiator support (what color was the car originally)?

 

[WillD]

I don't know how they haven't ripped that FMIC off by now. My R package front lip is that low and I've scraped the s*** out of the bottom of it.

 

[Josue6WGN]

Well...the core support used to be red, but it's been replaced. The rest of the car used to be that light blue color.

 

[Lewis7789]

Anyone want to buy my Optima Red Top that was in the P5? $50

 

[princess peach]

^ I'm interested... how long have you had it?
